I was going through a SBS 2003 to SBS 2011 the migration partially went through meaning that some roles were pushed to the new server (Schema, PDC, and RID pool) while the old server retained some roles as well (domain, and infrastructure).

The migration failed and stated I needed to wipe the new server and start over - so thats what I did - however the old server still thinks this new server is there just not connected.

How can I get the roles back on the old server and get it to "forget" the new server existed? I am getting licensing errors and odd things happening on my network which I can only believe have to do with the AD/DC being in an unhealthy state. My event viewer is filled with sharepoint errors as well as several others (all within application, dir service, and dns)

I tried to restore from the backup I took prior to this and the restore failed -_-
